There are 11 participants and since no one objected to my suggestion, we will have 3 participants in three of the KOs. Names were picked out using a randomer (not independently verified but you will just have to trust me). So please select whose list you prefer the most. Tell us why. The semis will take place on Tuesday, so you have two days to catch up on some music.

Onyx has Bowie, so it's a close one already. Queen, Floyd, Type O, The Doors, and Billy Idol are all stuff I can get into.
sfpx's list is a bit obscure punk-ish to me. Not familiar with most of it, but I love Maiden, and I love The Stooges.
All these lists have some winners, but @ZombieCPA's list melts my heart. I'll probably go to hell for not voting for a list with Bowie, but fuck it. I think what really sold me was The Ramones and Cheap Trick.
